“Claudia has been fantastic in going to walk Bodhi. She’s communicative and takes lots of pictures & Bodhi really likes their walking adventures. He was very receptive of her from the first meeting so I’m thrilled to have her stopping by a few times a week to take him outside while I’m at work.”

“Caden made an instant connection with my dog Charlie. I introduced them and then they went on a walk together. I immediately booked Caden for the three days the following week. He was on time all three days and notified me when the walks were finished. He brought in my UPS package and texted me. He also gave Charlie a drink and filled up his water dish. I found Caden to be very personable, on-time and responsible. I unconditionally recommend Caden.”

About: Hello! My name is Kenzie, and I’m a zookeeper with a lifelong passion for animals of all kinds! Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of species, with giraffes being my specialty. Working in animal care has taught me the importance of adaptability, patience, and individualized care. I have extensive experience with daily care and feeding, administering medications, following medical procedures, and safely relocating animals when needed. I love knowing all the little quirks that make your baby unique, what kind of scratches they like, which toys are their favorite etc. The more I know about their needs the more fun we can have together! Above all, I have a huge heart for animals and make their comfort, safety, and individual needs my top priority. I’m available for flexible drop-in visits as well as dog walking, and I would love the opportunity to care for your critters like they’re my own! I am very flexible with my schedule and do my best to accommodate the needs of both my clients and their critters! I’m happy to work around your schedule and find a routine that works best for you and your pet, while always making sure they receive the time, attention, and care they deserve. At home, I’m also a proud cat mom to two rescue cats, each with their own unique health needs that I manage alongside them. I’m especially passionate about choice-based and cooperative care, and I bring that same philosophy to every animal I work with. I’m very comfortable caring for nervous or shy animals and will always respect their boundaries and give them space when they need it. On the other hand, I’m a big animal lover, so if your critter is looking for some extra cuddles and affection, I’m always happy to oblige!

“Mary is awesome!! Scooby loves when she picks him up for a walk or plays in the backyard. You can tell she loves what she does and Scooby can tel too :)). Thank you so much Mary!!”

Thank you Jiselle! 😊 10/10”

About: I have house sat for many family members, neighbors, and acquaintance’s pets for two years. Before that I walked a few dogs in my neighborhood. This is currently my only form of work. I am almost always free unless there are other bookings lined up. I have form of transportation to get to your pets easily. I take staying in another’s person’s house very seriously. It is your space, and I intend to only stay to keep your fur babies happy, entertained, and taken care of. I respect your rules and clean up, so you felt like no one was even there.

About: I've always loved owning and taking care of dogs and cats. I own both and they're like my babies. I also have cared for my friend's dog and cats when she out of town. She's actually a pet sitter herself and said she wouldn't've asked another person but me. I'm just very loving and attentive. It's summer and I have open availability now. I am reliable, energetic and loving to your fur babies. Can’t wait to meet them soon!. Thank you! I will care for your pet anyway that works for their regular routine. My friend wanted her dog crated at night for bed and so I did just that. Her dog went out certain times of the day so to keep that schedule, I made sure I was there walking her and keeping her feeding schedule the same. Oh and of course lots of cuddles of course cause she missed her mama.

“Cassandra has been wonderful taking my dog for a daily walk while I’m working.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Caring for them has always felt less like a job and more like something I was naturally meant to do. I’ve had a passion for animals since I was little, and over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to turn that passion into years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in all kinds of settings. I’ve been pet sitting for several years and have also worked in veterinary medicine, grooming salons, and doggy daycares, giving me experience with everything from everyday care and companionship to grooming, enrichment, handling, and recognizing the little signs that a pet may need extra attention or reassurance. I’ve truly done just about every job under the sun when it comes to the care and well-being of dogs and cats. Every experience has taught me something new about how special and individual each animal really is. When your pets are in my care, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, secure, loved, and completely comfortable. I understand that being away from their people can be stressful, so I do everything I can to create a calm, positive environment where they can relax and feel at home. Whether that means playtime and cuddles, sticking closely to their routine, giving them plenty of patience and reassurance, or simply being there as a comforting presence, I treat every animal as if they were my own. To me, pet sitting is about so much more than feeding and walking, it’s about earning their trust, keeping them happy and cared for, and giving their owners peace of mind knowing their beloved pets are in loving, experienced hands. Hope to meet your fur babies soon!! 😊❤️ I currently have a lot of free time most days, so I’m available whenever your pet will need me! I can let them out when needed, feed them, or even give them walks. Whatever you need me to do, I’ll be there for them! I’m willing to follow your guidelines for your home. Whether that’s let them out into a fenced yard, certain hours of play time, long walks, or the be crated at specific times during the day. I’m here to help you out and make your babies more at ease.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs to cats and even rats. I have pet-sat for neighbors and family since I was 15 and 3 cats of my own at home. I have also dealt with animals with special needs including my family dog that has seizures and another family dog that is deaf, blind and has to receive insulin injections after every meal. My schedule is currently very open and I am available any day throughout the week as well as weekends. I am not currently looking for too many overnight stays because I do have 3 cats of my own to watch after. I have 3 very spoiled cats of my own that gets all of the attention that I can provide as well as daily play time and brushing. I keep to a very strict feeding schedule because one of my cat does have some food insecurity issues so I try to be very mindful of that. While taking care of my family’s dogs that require medical attention, I keep a check off list next to the food in order to insure that their medications that are either taken with or taken right after food are administered accordingly.

About: I treat each animal as if they were my own making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged while you're away. I go beyond just feeding and walking. I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s giving medication, providing extra cuddle time, or understanding quirky behaviors, I make it my priority to ensure they’re happy and healthy. Plus, I keep pet parents in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I am currently working from home and thought why not fill my day up with pets!!! So here I am:) I am also flexible in the event that something unexpectedly happens last minute. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine and environment, which helps minimize anxiety while you're away. I follow detailed care instructions, including feeding, medications, exercise, and playtime. I offer drop in visits, daily walks. I keep your home tidy and secure, bringing in mail, watering plants, etc. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing My goal is to make your absence as stress free as possible for both you and your pet.

About: I have always loved dogs and I have decided that I want to be around dogs in my free time because it makes me happy! I am a soon to be retired school teacher and want to spend my time now with animals especially dogs! For the next 10 months I will be still working my teacher schedule and would like to get a head start on my next venture. I would be available for dog sitting on weekends and dog walks after 3pm during the work week and anytime over weekends. I have always had a dog growing up and very lovingly cared for my own dogs for the last 31 years. I enjoy being around all dogs. When I retire I would also like to volunteer somewhere for dogs. I am a retired school teacher and I am substituting teaching part time. So, I am available most days unless I have a sub job. I really enjoy being around dogs and cats. I have a fenced in backyard and one dog named Lina. She is medium sized and very friendly with other dogs. I would love to love on your fur baby.

“My dog absolutely loves Michele. She is always willing to walk my dog and gives her lots of play time while she is there. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve been a dog sitter since I was 10, neighbors relied on me to feed and walk their pets. We’ve had dogs in our family for twenty years. I’m experienced with large and small dogs as well as dogs with seizures and heart problems. Hi! I’m a part-time employee with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time during the day for drop-ins, walks, or snuggles with your pup. I also welcome overnight guests, so whether you need quick check-ins or extended care, I’ve got you covered. Your pets will get lots of love, attention, and play while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard that will keep your fur babies safe. I live on a culdasac that has limited traffic and a neighborhood with beautiful areas to walk along the sidewalk. I typically walk my goldens 1.5 miles a day. I have a baby gate that prevents the dogs from going upstairs if needed, and another gate at the stop of the stairs to prevent them from going down if stairs are a problem for your fur baby. Dogs are like people in our home, always with us, cuddling on the couch and sleeping in our rooms. I crate trained my dogs as puppies and am familiar and comfortable with crates if one is dropped off.

Safety, structure, and positive reinforcement are really important to me, and I always make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’d love to help with walks, drop-ins, or sitting—whatever your pup needs! I treat every dog like they’re my own and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I currently have a part time job so that allows me plenty of time for your pups! Whatever their needs may be, I’m sure I can fit it into my schedule. I have a fenced yard with space for your pup to run around as well at 2 friendly dogs they can play with to keep them company.
